Spent the day on the Wiltshire Downs yesterday, one of a group organised by 4x4Adventuretours.co.uk (to which I have no connection).

Ooh - they're doing a mid-Wales in March, not too far from me, could be tempted |

I was letting the car run in the ruts but must have had the wheels pointing slightly to the left when it suddenly got some grip. The steering angle is on the 4x4 info page AND under the speedo. D'oh! Still, when it comes to hitting trees, I'm no Marc Bolan... |

Do it - great fun and fantastic scenery. I did lose the aluminium bits from the sidesteps though This was a bit tricky: (My son's the one swearing! No gyro-stabilised video this time) |

Sadly that's kind of expected when using road tyres off road, especially on stuff that has lots of fallen branches or is rocky. The tyres just aren't built for that sort of use.

I'm definitely going to do at least one of those days, both depending on whether the other half is coming or not |

Luckily, I can swap over to my summer tyres for now - so expect snow!
